Let's just be honest, everyone is not a Christian. Everyone does not believe that there is a God, or that He sent his son Jesus to die for our sins. To some people the whole Christian belief is far fetched and the commandments and morals is not something they want to live by. What do you do when you come upon one of these people who disregard your faith and disagree with what you believe in.
I've been in many situations where a person I have come across who doesn't agree with my faith tried to convince me Christianity is wrong. One thing I've learned from my father is to not go back and forth with a person. Simply state you beliefs and keep it moving. My father also reminded me not to get angry or treat someone differently because they don't believe in what you believe in.
When you are a soldier fighting for you faith, its hard not to take personal offense to what people say against you. We have to remember we are in the spiritual and not dislike the person in the physical rim.
Romans put it best...
Romans 14
1 Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don't see things the way you do. And don't jump all over them every time they do or say something you don't agree with—even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department. Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently.
In other words folks, love everyone. Do not dislike others, rather continue to be an example and love them anyway.
Until Next time...
